Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema says that his party is considering contesting for the mayoral position in Johannesburg and says that EFF leadership must see themselves in municipal leaderships.

“I get worried that every time there is a position available in the municipality people talk about the DA and ANC but not about the EFF, yet we have said we are ready to govern,” said Malema, while leading the media on a site visit of Nasrec on Monday where the party will hold its second national people’s assembly in December.

“I don’t want us to reduce the debate into DA and ANC. I want to propose that the EFF must contest. Everybody is fielding their own candidates, why can’t we field our own candidates?” he asked.

Erm, first wait until ~30% or more of the population are dumb enough to vote for you.

I think CIC is trying to elicit a tweet from Zille - I applaud the strategy.

I wonder why they didn't bargain for a metro from the DA in the last local elections.

Direct translation from turd language "govern" = "theft/corruption"

The Zuptoid state capture would pale in comparison.

Yep, I thought at the time that was going to be there strategy but they didn't.

I think they have had the tender taste from jhb and now wanting the whole cake

Nothing stops people voting EFF like an EFF administration. A few SRCs that they won, they got voted out after one term. I think running a metro from 2016 would have hurt them in the run up to this year's election.

For everyone's sake I hope our very own "little Hitler" never ever get's his hands on any type of real power.

Or on the other hand maybe he should, maybe a mayoral position so that the people can see just how royally he screws over the citizens, just not in the Western Cape though, he can experiment somewhere else..... :p

Not so good idea, he will steal from the rich and middle class and give to the poor, just to get more power.

The EFF is not around when the real sh!!t hits the fan, and most times can be found as the cause of that same sh!!t. This will be very interesting times indeed! :laugh:

No. There is absolutely no evidence, anywhere, to support this claim.
Actually there is more than sufficient evidence that they are... According to their standards of governance... There is also more than sufficient evidence to show that the country is not and never will be ready for them to govern.

LOL, adding "according to their standards of governance" is like looking at life through rose-tinted glasses. These cretins have captured the market on warped views of reality.
